All clouds and showers for the rest of November, then nothing but sun.  |

All clouds and showers for the rest of November, then nothing but sun. I don't want to push our luck but we've been incredibly lucky with this week (first weekend in Dec.). Three trips and eight rounds under my belt with nary a drop of rain - poured at breakfast the first year and that's it. I'd say about 50/50 on sun/clouds and I've played at least four rounds in shorts. |

I just returned from *8==>*'s, where I did not buy an Under Armour ColdGear mock-T or Footjoy rain gloves. The gods smile.

So, for fun. What did you buy, or better yet: WITB for the big trip?  Whiskers, how 'bout you? |

Nope, nothing for me. My bag hasn't changed in over two years. (Not so) Coincidentally, that's about when Baaab left town.  I did buy two dozen Precepts for $18 yesterday. Plus the obligatory new glove. Two actually. Saving my pennies for pints  + bangers and mash.  |

Nice price on the Precepts.  What ball? Or do you just grab the sale Du Jour? |

Laddie Extreme.
Haven't played it but there wasn't much available at a good price. I refuse to pay for golf balls as I'm not good enough to take advantage of the better ones. My all-time favorite cheap ball was the Maxfli Tour Revolution. Three piece ball for a screaming good price. When they discontinued them I bought five dozen at something like $9. Still have a few and those will be put into play at Bandon. Just wanted to make sure I had extras as I hate to buy emergency balls at pro shop prices.

My bag is still the same as when I took the No-Ho pledge a couple years ago, I think: - Driver -- KZG Gemini 460 on SK Fiber Lite Rev II, backweighted (this club will see range time but probably won't even be in the bag on-course)
- 5-Wood -- Ashton X-1D (changed to DG S300, tipped and backweighted)(Nakashima from campy (also reshafted with DGS300) may make the trip)
- Hybrid -- SMT Avocet 23*
 on UST iRod hybrid shaft (hate this entire stick, but what can you do?) - Irons -- Golfworks CER 851UM 3-PW on UST ProForce Rv2 115 stiff
 - Wedges -- Vokey 52/56/60
 - Putter: Mentorsports Triad "Clive" model
 (OK, this is new since the Pledge) - Golf Pride V55 ribbed grips all around, built up
 - GripOne gloves (two-fer!)
 - Titleist ProV1x (4 dozen from lostgolfballs.com)
Enjoying some lower back pain, left hip bursitis or tendinitis, and my neck has been dodgy for ~3 weeks now. I won't mention the *goshdarn* head cold I just got from the sick toddlers at our Thanksgiving. OK, that should be enough to explain my 100+ scores. That, and I suck at golf. |
